Thanks for your report.

I'm sorry for inconvenience. AUCTeX did change the detail of the
implementation of abbrev table in major version 14. We tried to maintain
the compatibility, but it seems that you encountered a corner case
unfortunately. (We haven't heard of the abbrev incompatibility since the
release of AUCTeX 14, so we think that most AUCTeX users didn't have
trouble for abbrev so far.)

Currently I can't see what is wrong. Could you provide your whole config
relating to AUCTeX and tell the detail about "abbrev expansion stops
working." so that we can reproduce the issue?
